It'd be some guy at niantic hq testing to see if it worked


Optimal_Passion_1476

Bold of you to assume niantic tests things


Fiberz_

nah, they test stuff to make sure it’s shit, then proceed to add it in 😎

“Does this suck for them?” “Yup.” “Nailed it.”

Jazs1994

Exactly, they do not check or test anything before rolling out, otherwise they'd do it properly, which they've never done. Everything they do to either update the game or bring something new in it goes wrong and not just a little wrong, everything breaks

damn


AmiiboPuff

You are tell me that Niantic still does quality testing? Cause I have some serious doubts about that.


Lord_Emperor

> still This implies they have done so in the past.


AmiiboPuff

Touche


iamlovingblackclover

yep


GoldFishPony

I think they quality tested the newer mega evolution system which is why it’s actually good


iamlovingblackclover

It's echo chamber testing. A snake safe in it's layer hears noting but it's own rattle.

Yep


MrTomDawson

More importantly...who cares?


frocodile191

Sadly, seems like at least 34k people.


ConceptualWeeb

I doubt anyone that watched any of these videos cares who actually did it first. It was done on the first day that it could be done and that’s close enough.


RuxinRodney

nah they just clicked the video to see the fusion happen lol


KillerBullet

Nah those people just want to see it. OP cares though.


[deleted]

I did it first, currently working with my team to DMCA all these videos


Kaonashi-asian-black

This guy is right. I was one of the fused Pokémon.


Blue_Bird950

Can confirm, I was the other fused pokemon. Fusion feels weird btw


Kaonashi-asian-black

I think we’ll get more comfortable over time


Blue_Bird950

If you think about it, you would be necrozma and I would be solgaleo in this case. As you absorb more of my power, I feel less comfortable while you feel more so


DalvenLegit

We are still fused, how much it lasts? I’m felling uncomfortable… (I’m not!! Leave us like this!!) Damn…


TheGreatVox

Can confirm , i was the app


Blue_Bird950

You’re pokemon go? Finally, someone to complain to. Everyone rant to this guy about all of pokemon go’s problems


TheGreatVox

Uhhh... Shit


chechs

And I was the energy. Am I all spent now?


AstroNot87

What’s funny is that the PoGo YouTubers are **all** friends so I’m sure they talked about “what clickbait title should we all put?” Lol


II_Confused

They all copy off of each other. It's more incestuous than Game of Thrones


PM-ME-RABBIT-HOLES

That is *quite* the comparison


II_Confused

Oh trust me. I could hove made a way dirtier comparison.

nvdnqvi

And he also became a hard nft shill 🤮


nvdnqvi

don’t forget PokéAK and his infamous blocking people on Twitter


PowerOfUnoriginality

Tbf, Zoëtwodots never claimed to do it first in the that title. Just that it was the first fusion introduced in Go


Gold-Perspective-699

Exactly. I think pokedaxi though... Weird title.


vishalb777

It's always those shitty youtubers that have their exaggerated facial expressions on the thumbnail


Gold-Perspective-699

I'll give a pass to Zoe though cause her title is fine.


Blue_Bird950

It’s the youtuber face, they emphasize everything to get hype


MinMaxie

Yep, and it works. It's worked so well for so long that even if we were to tell everyone in the world, "Hey stop clicking on face thumbnails!" it ***still*** wouldn't go away bc it's baked into the algorithm at this point. Until someone can prove another way works better... we're stuck with the stupid faces 😓


Blue_Bird950

Ngl the real first one was probably some lucky guy who got a shundo first raid and immediately fused it. They just can’t prove otherwise.


MinMaxie

Omg I know. The face in every thumbnail thing ***sucks & I hate it!*** ...but it works. I've heard a bunch of YouTubers & streamers talk about it, and they hate it too, but the numbers don't lie. If anything? Blame the unevolved, monkey-like human brain. We (still) naturally respond to faces. Can't be helped 🤷


Personal_Arm_8715

All pokemongo youtubers have to use super bait titles and thumbnails. You cant really be mad at them.


nottytom

all youtubers have to use....thats kinda how it works, if they dont it gets lost in a sea of the same kind of video


Personal_Arm_8715

Exactly


DrKillerZA

Trainer Tips will probably be first next week.


Shinjosh13

real


EmotionalBird2362

I hate YouTube thumbnails


meerkat1993

The guy at the bottom rotates same few pog faces for his thumbnails. I hate it.


Tokoyami01

I can't believe they're just putting misinformation out there like that Slowbro is literally Slowpoke + Shellder


coveredinclouds

And you forgot Origin Dialga = Dialga after swallowing a Beldum.


dumbprocessor

The one with the biggest soyface


fossilmerrick

Damn, I was coming here to comment that exact sentence


deadlykitten132

I think they meant that they caught the first pokemon that is able to fuse. not that they're the first to catch that pokemon lol


Mydoglikesladyboys

That top one is definitely making the claim they did it first in that title


lIIIllIIlIIIlIl

He was even arguing about it in his comments. 💀 Someone said something along the lines of "someone uploaded a video title similar to this before you" and he hit them with the "akshually ☝️🤓".


nvdnqvi

nah that’s kinda funny


SleeplessShinigami

Could argue for Zoe, but Daxi and Mystic definitely made the claim lol


Lopsided-Bridge-9870

Mystic makes me wanna put pencils in my ears and glue my eyes shut. Just following hype and has no real knowledge of Pokemon almost every other pogo YouTuber is bad minus a couple


PinkyPomegranate

And then he 'got into' the Pokemon TCG with his own shop and telling people to buy his mystery packs with absolutely no knowledge of the hobby (insulting as a collector myself). I cannot stand most of these YouTube guys, but he takes the cake for me. Every thumbnail with an O face that is beyond cringe.


nvdnqvi

Yeah I could very easily tell that he moved to the tcg scene as a grifter instead of a true passionate fan of the card game or card collecting. He just wants the $$


PinkyPomegranate

Especially after POGO nerfed remote raids, I remember he made a video talking about exploring other avenues in Pokemon because that’s how he makes his living. Then came the TCG and live streams selling packs. Like you said, grifting at its finest.


Springbunny12

He literally said that Basculegion was introduced in Scarlet and voilet, he genuinely knows pretty much nothing about pokemon outside of GO


buh2001j

His thumbnails always have that same mugging face he pulls, so annoying


senorfresco

I don't like him that much but he was one of the few to legitimately call out and push back during the remote raid changes last year which gained some of my respect. Many of the rest of them refused to say anything.


nvdnqvi

it’s easy to see that he did it out of self interest. He would do livestreams every week where he remote raided like 20 raids at a time


senorfresco

We all pushed back out of "self interest". Doing so for him in the manner he did would burn bridges towards partnerships like Zoe, Zyonik, the Trainerclub guy, with the game that's his main source of income.


Hail_The_Motherland

I disagree. Almost every Pokemon Go influencer had some sort of clickbait "call out" on remote raids, it was definitely not just a few. Is there an example of one of them that *didn't* do it? Because why not? They certainly weren't getting fined or censored by Niantic for "Hear us, Niantic" content. Instead, they just raked in views and money for being "brave" and "standing up against Niantic". The audacity to call for protests, while still remote raiding was insane behavior.


senorfresco

> Is there an example of one of them that didn't do it? Yes, the ones with connections to Niantic like ZoeTwoDots and Trainertips. I don't remember hearing anything from Zyonik. ZoeTwoDots said it was "fair" and the Trainertips dude told us not to waste our time.


jgk91

Yes, you just have to look at who gets invited to the Niantic Headquarters to “test new features”. Zoetwodots and Trainertips are included, Mystic is not.


jomarthecat

I find him enjoyable, but he does tend to exaggerate a lot. Every video is always about ***The Best Pokemon*** ever to be released!


HiddenFears3

Pogo YouTube thumbnails are some of the cringiest in the gaming community


NurWeberlich

I will be the world first in July! 🫡


Ahmdo10

None of them are, IM the one who actually Fused the WORLD’S FIRST EVER FUSION in Pokémon Go!


Sebo366

This is why I hate pogo YouTube


pizzaiolo2

Give em a break, they're under constant pressure to create engaging content


SparkOfLife1

And with a game as buggy as Go, it's a struggle to say the least


Gold-Perspective-699

It doesn't say she made the first fusion. It just says it is the first fusion. Pokedaxi though is a bit weird title.


nvdnqvi

I stick mostly with PvP youtubers, it’s the only engaging GO content on YouTube


Quokkert

Daxi now changed his title to "EARLY". I wonder why :p


TiberiusEmperor

As if it wasn’t FleeceKing anyway


nvdnqvi

Nah dw Fleeceking wasn’t at GO Fest Sendai, he’s still in Turkey


El-Duderino966

It's me Mario I did it first


isseidoki

![gif](giphy|l3mZrLxM4iZaQlvNe) oof


Bergfotz

When will Necrozma be available?


HMKS

Currently available if you can raid into Sendai Go Fest (shiny locked without the ticket). I think it’ll be available during global go fest in about a month or so.


RyomaLobster

Global release of Necrozma is July 13-14th you can technically remote raid it right now but it’s shiny locked for non ticket holders to the in person events


Derailedatthestation

And can't fuse it yet outside of Sendai. I have a nice 96 though that I'll use when I can. I'm pissed at myself that I spent real money to buy a pack of remote passes, I swore I wasn't going to do that anymore.


RyomaLobster

Can’t fuse because the energy is in the special research for buying the ticket. Many people are remote raiding to get ahead get the Hundo early and more candies


Derailedatthestation

The candy and OV is why I broke my promise to myself not to buy coins and spent $20. I'm not sorry though, got the 96 and a bunch of lesser iv


RyomaLobster

I’m saving my coins for global gofest sadly I’ll be at a convention all weekend so I’ll have to remote raid a shit ton


Derailedatthestation

That sucks. Hopefully you'll get some great ones to make up for the remoting.


RyomaLobster

I mean hey if I rather go out to in person said or meet Ash ketchums voice actress I pick to meet her


Derailedatthestation

That sounds like the right choice.


RyomaLobster

To me it does but hey I’m still going to buy a ticket and play the event and remote raid


Contank

Out of those two its Zoe. Most likely though it was someone else entirely. Atleast Zoe never claimed to be the first to fuse it.


Bakurraa

Who cares?


batkave

If you're not first you're last


Orazam

Zoe and Mystic's titles are factual, they're not claiming that they themselves were the first to fuse, but that that is the first pokemon to be able to fuse. Poke Daxi's title is just silly clickbait


ConsiderateGuy

I’m pretty sure they’re just saying this is the first fuzed pokemon released in PoGo and they caught it.


Mydoglikesladyboys

Probably someone at the event who didn't feel the need to make a 12 minute+ video on it. I know they do it for the algorithm and the ads+sponsor revenue but how is this content worthy of a 12 minute+ video?


SleeplessShinigami

Its a go fest video with boosted shiny rates, they are fun videos to watch


TPro24633

The fact that Brandon is plowing Sydnee Goodman is insane. He's such a dork


Express-Luck-3812

TIL mystic7 is also named Brandon


danyeet69

Just curious, what’s so bad about Sydnee?


Puzzleheaded_Ebb9874

He meant the opposite He wants to plow Sydney Goodman instead of Mystic


FoundationMuted6177

It depends... Maybe he was first published it later the day 🤔


Squirt13Squ4d

It’s almost like they’re all operating from the same script.. 🤔


GreatSivad

It was me, DIO!


SilentScyther

The first one traded it to the third one and the second one is just a react channel.


SyFy410

None of them


princeofwraith

Someone that wasn’t busy recording themselves


HectorAyalaMX

Me, I got the first Fused Necrozma (I didn't even opened the game yet)


HansDampfHaudegen

I call BS. Some Niantic dev fused the first one when they programmed the feature.


Capsfan6

I wonder if making a title like "I got the world's SECOND fusion Pokemon" would be as successful as these bad titles in terms of getting clicks. If for nothing else but for being different.


HIS_AFFLICTION_0079

None of them are claiming it as the first fusion as in them fusing the mon, they’re saying Necrozma is the first fusion Pokémon


NoahDavidATL

Whoever posted first wins.


big-r-aka-r-man

I miss when mystic made clash of clans videos


PuzzleheadedUse457

None of the three are starting they are the first. Just that they got the first Pokémon that could fuse in POGO


Cubensio

It was me. Trust me.


Kitakitakita

why do they all have that same bussin hairstyle


TheCrmsnFkr

First upload ig


DavidKroutArt

I'm pretty sure I was first. I just have to get it still.


RickJames_Rambo3

Poketubers are exhausting


testicletitties69

Poke Daxi is a sellout


jgk91

Yes, I originally liked him because he was outside of this core poketuber group and offered unique videos. Now he’s part of it and doing the same thing.


Forsaken-Blood-109

Illiteracy is scary


Shinjosh13

😩


Dylanzoh

Looks like AI


nottytom

honestly, probably some rando who doesn't post beat all of them to it.


EcstaticAd7324

The fastes raid to open and defeat and catch with crítical Ball and fusión

First was a person who doesn’t care to be known and just blasted through the questline

GBL is the only content that I’m interested in watching, otherwise you’re right, the rest of the game gets stale and not exciting


Remarkable_Rub_9067

Zoe two dots makes me cringe.


WolverineRelevant280

Wow 3 YouTubers I won’t subscribe to. We really need to stop giving clickbaiters the views


DalvenLegit

![gif](giphy|Ysa5oH0RszCVi) Someone told something about fusion??

The guy driving around Japan with 40 phones on his bike.


MimiqrySlashimi

Pokedaxi’s a great youtuber! Love his content


digimonmaster151

My dad works for Niantic. He was the first.


iRAWRasaurus

Yes


Mix_Safe

Probably one of the 2 QAers that Niantic has.


Rough-Fill8101

Whichever one has the largest, gaping O face.


surliermender317

Y’all really be blowing legendaries they put into Pokémon Go as if the Pokémon hadn’t already existed for 10 years lol


Adorable_Committee99

The real first fused pokemon is probably from some 13yr old boy who begged his mother to buy go fest tickets


Wallflower69XD

Nobody Cares Nerd


sladebonge

Is there fusion now?
